  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RP058 - Please edit other personnel numbers in next step ?

    The SAP error message RP058 ("Please edit other personnel numbers in next step") typically occurs in the context of personnel administration or payroll processing when there are issues related to personnel numbers being processed in a specific transaction or report.

    Cause:

    1. Multiple Personnel Numbers: The error often arises when a user attempts to process multiple personnel numbers in a single step, but the system requires that each personnel number be handled individually in certain transactions.
    2. Data Locking: Another possible cause could be that the personnel numbers are locked for editing by another user or process.
    3. Incorrect Selection: The user may have selected personnel numbers that are not eligible for the operation being performed (e.g., trying to run a payroll for employees who are not active).
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to edit or process the selected personnel numbers.

    Solution:

    1. Process Individually: If the error indicates that you need to edit other personnel numbers in the next step, try processing each personnel number one at a time instead of in bulk.
    2. Check Locks: Verify if the personnel numbers are locked by another user or process. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks and SM21 for system logs.
    3. Review Selection Criteria: Ensure that the personnel numbers you are trying to process meet the criteria for the operation you are performing. For example, check if they are active employees.
    4. Authorization Check: Make sure you have the necessary authorizations to perform the action on the selected personnel numbers. You may need to consult with your SAP security team.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for the specific transaction you are using to understand any additional requirements or restrictions.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PA30 (Maintain HR Master Data), PA40 (Personnel Actions), and others that may be related to personnel administration.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. You can search for notes in the SAP Support Portal.
